I will learn about sustainable fashion and begin trying to practice it in my own life.

What can lack of access to nutritious food affect a community? How can having access to nutritious food help a community become more resilient?

I will visit seafoodwatch.org or download the app and commit to making better seafood choices for a healthier ocean.

I will keep lights, electronics, and appliances turned off when not using them.

I will naturally heat and cool my house, office, or dorm room by opening or closing my windows, curtains, and blinds, and by using fans.

I will avoid buying toxic plastics - including polycarbonate, polystyrene and polyvinyl - and instead replace them with durable non-plastic options.

I will eat a heart healthy diet by adding 1 cup(s) of fruits and vegetables each day to achieve at least 4 cups per day.

I will write down three things every day that I am grateful for, or send one email every day thanking or praising someone.

I will switch to washing my clothes in cold water, saving up to 133 lbs of CO2 a month and 1,600 lbs of CO2 over the course of the next year.

If at all possible, I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

I will save up to .21 lbs (.09 kg) of paper per day by switching from one-sided printing to two-sided when I have to print documents.

I will reduce food waste and save money by planning a weekly menu, only buying the ingredients I need.

Effectively working for sustainability requires self care! I will commit to getting 30 more minute(s) of sleep each night to achieve at least 7 hours per night.
